Consumer Description

HAVING THE JEEP SERVICES FOR A BROKEN CHAIR RAIL ($1200!) AND THEY TOLD ME THE POWER STEERING RESERVOIR WAS EMPTY AND THE POWER STEERING PUMP, RESERVOIR, RACK AND PINION AND HOSES WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED FOR ANOTHER $2350! I'VE READ THAT THIS VEHICLE HAS A HISTORY OF THIS AND HAS CREATED A FIRE HAZARD. THIS CAR IS NOT 3 YEARS OLD AND HAS HAD FUEL PUMP, WATER PUMP, REAR LATCH LOCK AND MULTIPLE RECALLS ON OTHER ITEMS. DEALERSHIP IS RAKING IN THE CASH; IT VERY UPSETTING FOR SOMEONE WHO REALLY WANTS TO BUY AMERICAN MADE VEHICLES! *TR
